Sunshine in my pocket

Emboss a Layer

April 25, 2020 Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I’m excited to share a new technique (to me) with layering stamps. I stamped this beautiful flower and then heat embossed ONE of the layers to create a fabulous result!

See that gold glitter layer?

First I stamped out the colors in fun sherbet colors (I’ve got summer on my mind!) and then I heat embossed a layer with this beautiful gold/tan embossing powder.

It adds such a fun layer of light glittery look to the flowers. I also black heat embossed the little stamens for a fun look.

To put this card together, I used some washi tape for the background and cut out the large hope sentiment with a yellow glitter paper and backed it with black cardstock.

Aren’t these flowers so beautiful?! I was inspired by the course “Impressive Heat Embossing” at Altenew…and I had one more technique I wanted to try. Svetlana Marchenko suggested trying clear heat embossing on a dark or colored background. So this next card does just that.

clear embossing on green background

I used the same florals and washi tape on this bright green Spring card…with clear embossing on the background. It is difficult to see in photos, but in real life it adds a fun element to the card.

For the hello sentiment, I heat embossed it with a dark grey embossing powder to finish it all off.

What a great class! I recommend it to anyone wanting some new, fresh heat embossing ideas for your cards. Thanks for stopping by!

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards, so I’ve made a list here using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

Hope you enjoyed these projects today! I appreciate you stopping by.

May your days be filled with sunshine,
